What are you Listening To Right Now? - and more

I can change the the cutoff frequency, but I didn't see a "full range" setting? I do a manual setup as the YPAO is a pain compared to other AVR's I've had, and my living room arrangement is not conducive to putting microphone stands on the sofa, with the mic cable just barely long enough to reach the reciever. and doing 3 runs in each position... I use a laser rangefinder to determine exact positions, and input them manually- it then wants to know the cutoff freq... from my recollection... and like I said I don't recall seeing a full range selection? :dunno:
I never had a high end Yamaha AVR like yours but I did have a entry level Yamaha AVR . The YPAO on mine allowed me to select Large or Small for the speakers the frequency sent to the speakers was determined by the Yamaha software

Yes, same show here more or less... but as I mention, the YPAO on mine is quite complex, and for the reasons I mentioned just before, I chose to do a manual setup... I may try to run the YPAO software to see what differences occur? :dunno:

I briefly had a $1200.00 Sony AVR that was an awful AVR in terms of build construction, being made out of recycled beer cans, and the main relay gave a big kerthunk at turnon, and literally shook the whole AVR! It lasted a month before said relay ate itself! HOWEVER, it had the easiest calibration process imaginable- place the mike in the sitting position, and do one click of the remote and it ran to completion! No shifting of mics to 3 positions and doing a sweep 3 times!!! However the AVR was total garbage... :(
 
Eggzactly... but here's the thing- it was working up until recently without changing the setup to "extra bass", and if that's the norm, it's stupid because the Yamaha truncates the bottom end of the fronts and all large speakers at 80Hz regardless! So why ON EARTH would you turn the sub off if you select large speakers??? Get my drift? :dunno:
They are idiots. I found the same thing, namely, how do you differentiate between what's large and what's small. As usual try both and let "your" ear decide. :):beerchug::beerchug::beerchug::)
